[Radiant] Deployment without SSH?

[Josh Ferguson]

I had bad memory leak problems using mongrel, apache, radiant and 
mongrel. I tracked it for more than a week and could reproduce it. 
Switching to postgres solved the memory leak completely. I'm not sure 
what the problem was but I would suggest staying away from the sqlite3 
bindings as for whatever reason radiant's caching causes memory leaks 
with it.
